Saint Charles Parish San Diego / Imperial Beach Page Two

Our Mission St. Charles is a Christ focused, diverse, family centered, Catholic community serving Imperial Beach and the South Bay. We believe in the real presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist and His saving grace received through the Sacraments. We believe in the Holy Catholic Church instituted by Jesus, the sanctity of life, the value of family, and lifelong Catholic education for all ages. We live to deepen our love of God, spread His Gospel and bring others to Christ. We are committed to a life of prayer, sacrifice, and service to those in need. With love, humility, and joyful obedience, we strive to be transformed and guided by the Holy Spirit until we are transformed in the eternal life of Heaven.

Daily Prayer For Priests O Jesus, I pray for your faithful and fervent priests; For your unfaithful and tepid priests; For your priests laboring at home or abroad in distant mission fields. For your tempted priests; For your lonely and desolate priests; For your young priests; For your dying priests; For the souls of your priests in Purgatory. But above all, I recommend to you the priests dearest to me: The priest who baptized me; The priests who absolved me from my sins; The priests at whose Masses I assisted and who gave me Your Body and Blood in Holy Communion; The priests who taught and instructed me; All the priests to whom I am indebted in any other way (especially_________). O Jesus, keep them all close to your heart, And bless them abundantly in time and in Eternity. Amen By St. Therese of Lisieux

THE WATERS OF BAPTISM

When new sod is put in, it needs constant saturation with water. Landscapers say that this “knits” the sod to the soil. The same when a branch is grafted onto a tree: the poultice that joins them at the splice must be kept wet at all times. Water is the stuff that binds the very cells of our bodies together. No wonder religions throughout all times and cul-tures have used it so prominently. When Jesus stepped into the Jordan for baptism, he “knit” himself to what had come before him. By going to the Jordan, he made himself one with the people of Israel who had crossed it into their Promised Land. With John the Baptist, Christ wove himself into the prophetic tradition that heralded the coming reign of God. He had be-come fully human in the waters of Mary’s womb, and by partaking in the rite of the baptism of repentance, Jesus identified himself with our sinful, frail humanity. It is through the waters of baptism that Christ continues to graft new members onto his Body, the Church; through these waters we are cleansed from sin and filled with the promise of grace, given our des-tiny for eternal life. For us, as for Jesus, it is also the waters of baptism

that inaugurate our mission to proclaim the Good News. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

Page Five El Bautismo del Señor 10 de Enero de 2021

Nuestra Misión San Carlos es una Iglesia enfocada en Cristo, diversa, centrada en la familia, sirviendo a la comunidad católica de Imperial Beach y South Bay. Creemos en la presencia verdadera de Jesucristo en la Eucaristía y Su Gracia salvadora recibida en los Sacramentos. Creemos en la Santa Iglesia Católica instituida por Jesús, en la santidad de la vida, el valor de la familia, y de la educación católica de toda la vida para todas las edades. Vivimos para profundizar nuestro amor a Dios, esparcir Su Evangelio y traer a otros a Cristo. Estamos comprometidos a una vida de oración, de sacrificio, y al servicio a aquellos más necesitados. Con amor, humildad, y alegre obedien-cia, nos esforzamos para ser transformados y para ser guiados por el Espíritu Santo hasta que seamos transfor-mados en la vida eterna en el Cielo.

Oración Diaria por los Sacerdotes

O Jesús, Te ruego por tus fieles sacerdotes. Por tus tibios e infieles sacerdotes; Por tus sacerdotes que están con nosotros o en tierra de misiones. Por los sacerdotes que son tentados; Por los sacerdotes abandonados y en sole-dad; Por tus sacerdotes jóvenes; Por tus sacerdotes mori-bundos; Y por quienes sufren en el Purgatorio. Ante todo, pongo en tus manos a los sacerdotes que más quiero: El sacerdote que me bautizó; El sacerdote que me absuelve de mis pecados; Los sacerdotes que celebran la Misa a que asisto y me da en Comunión tu Cuerpo y Sangre; Los sacerdotes que me instruyen; Por quienes estoy en deuda, en especial (por el Padre______). O Jesús, consérvalos siempre junto a tu corazón y bendícelos siempre hasta la eternidad. Amén. Sta. Therese de Lisieux

LAS AGUAS BAUTISMALES

Cuando se planta un césped nuevo, debe regarse constantemente. Los jardineros dicen que esto “teje” el césped al suelo. Lo mismo sucede cuando se injerta una rama a un árbol: el cataplasma que los une debe estar húmedo en todo momento. El agua es lo que mantiene unidas a las células de nuestro cuerpo. Con razón las religiones de todas las épocas y culturas han usado tanto este símbolo. Cuando Jesús se sumerge en el Jordán para ser bautizado, se “teje” a todo aquello que lo precedía. Al sumergirse en el Jordán, se hizo uno con el pueblo de Israel que había cruzado el río para llegar a su Tierra Prometida. Junto a Juan Bautista, Cristo se tejió a la tra-dición profética que presagiaba la venida del Reino de Dios. Jesús se había convertido plenamente en humano en las aguas del vientre de María y al participar del rito del Bautismo del arrepentimiento, se sintió identificado con nuestra frágil y pecaminosa humanidad. Por las aguas del Bautismo Cristo continúa injertando nuevos miembros a su Cuerpo, la Iglesia; gra-cias a nuestro destino de vida eterna, por estas aguas somos limpiados del

pecado y recibimos la promesa de la gracia. Para nosotros, como para Jesús, las aguas bautismales también inauguran nuestra misión de proclamar la Buena Nueva. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

UN ANTIGUO BAUTISTERIO

En Roma está uno de los lugares para bautizar más anti-guos que ha permanecido a lo largo de los siglos, está en la iglesia de san Giovanni en Fonte. De hecho la iglesia es el bautisterio y ahí está la pila bautis-mal de la Basílica de Letrán, la cate-dral de Roma. El emperador romano Constantino patrocino la construc-ción en el año 315 por lo que lo hace el bautisterio más antiguo del mun-do. Su edificación es modelo para todos los bautisterios que se constru-yeron después, incluyendo quizá la pila bautismal que puede haber en tu propia parroquia.

LOS SANTOS Y OTRAS CELEBRACIONES Domingo: El Bautismo del Señor Lunes: Primera Semana del Tiempo Ordinario Miércoles: San Hilario Sábado: La Santísima Virgen María

Las inscripciones ya están abiertas para la Confirmación de Adultos durante el horario de oficina de lunes a viernes de 9:00am a 5:00pm, en el Centro Catequético. Por favor traiga una copia de su Certificado de Bautismo. Las clases comen-zarán el 20 de enero 2021. Para mas información mande un e-mail a stcharlesyam2017@gmail.com.
